Most Americans who get the flu, a head cold, allergies or some throwing-up virus do the same thing; they go to their doctor or a “doc-in-the-box” for a quick prescription, or they run into the grocery or pharmacy for some OTC, over-the-counter, medications that contain a host of chemicals and do nothing more than suppress symptoms of a much greater problem.

First of all, nobody wants to feel lousy for days on end, especially when they have to go to work, take care of children, juggle other responsibilities and enjoy their lives in general. However, Western Medicine has most people convinced that, if they can just quell their symptoms enough to “function,” then they can ride it out and still get enough done to survive and “pay the bills.” Well, that simply is NOT enough.

There is much more to feeling good and being healthy than just burying problems under a rug and pretending like they’ll go away.

The reason why most people get sick, with head colds, allergies and flu bugs, is because their immune system is not firing on all cylinders, mainly because nutrition has been compromised, severely. Then, when they pour in more chemicals, like bacteria from laboratories, aluminum- and petroleum-based food colorings and artificial sweeteners like aspartame, sucralose and sorbitol (found in nearly every OTC liquid cough and cold med), they’re depleting their body’s ability to battle any infection, virus or bacteria that is foreign to their system. Synthetic food, food agents, food chemicals, additives, preservatives and genetically modified foods wreck immunity, create imbalance of the central nervous system and often add to the severity of common head colds, the flu, viruses and allergies.

Are you eating “moldy bread” daily?

If you were getting sick from eating moldy bread, would you look for some symptom “relief” medication while you kept on eating moldy bread? Of course you wouldn’t. That’s just common sense. So why go drink some chemical-laden cough syrup or painkiller when your “pain” is coming from toxic foods, like MSG and aspartame?

Why get a flu shot when it’s a “shot in the dark” – like a 1 in 12 chance that it even addresses the right strain of the flu that season. Add in all the chemicals put in vaccines, like aluminum, MSG (monosodium glutamate), sorbitol, formaldehyde, mercury and the like, and you’re injecting toxins straight into the blood, bypassing digestion and lung filtering capabilities, adding to the stress and chaos of free radicals in your body. Is that how you want to get well soon? Is that how you will fight every sickness?
